choppy
Maybe its just how an rx7 sounds...I have a 1990 rx7 gxl..
heres the problem. everytime i start the car it will jump up to 3000rpm untill i give it a little gas. then it will be at about 2000rpm...you cana also here it has a pretty choppy sound to it...i know i live on a marine corps base but everytime i look up there not helos..i thought it might be the spark plugs. i took them out and they were disgusting. i bought new ngk spark plugs and put them in. the car started right up and went right to 3000rpm wich i thought would happen anyway. i hit the gas pedal and the rpm went back down to about 2000...i was pretty happy because i didnt hear the choppy sound anymore..i let it run a little bit longer and then it was happening again...? can anyone gimme a clue on what it is and what to do...i would appreciate it a lot....thank you
